I'm Here to Talk

I'm here to talk today
about something that's been haunting me
and the more I think, the more I get stuck
how can people so socialist
give up on making socialism?
It's like trying to make a stew
without chicken, rice, or even a pot.

I'm here to talk today
about something that's been haunting me
and the more I think, the more I see
that this grand project of rebuilding
seems more like an eviction
it's like trying to install a window
by first throwing the glass into the street.

I'm here to talk today
about something that's been haunting me
and I think and see in all colors
they've freed spies and bombers
it must be for the workers over there
it's like throwing snakes in the city
and locking freedom in a cage.

I'm here to talk today
about something that's been haunting me
and I see and from seeing I take advice
what real land reform is
for some, it's the red devil
those folks just want to see pink angels
between Castro Verde and Vila Viçosa.

I might not be here tomorrow
but also, for what I've repeated here...
it's that I'm not the only one who thinks
that we need to be united
united like grapes in a bunch
united like grapes in a bunch.
